Join us for something new at Bord‑Aire. A fun, creative cake‑painting experience where your cake becomes your canvas. Each guest receives a 4” x 4” double‑layer chiffon cake made by RRC Polytech, along with a fresh buttercream color palette whipped up in house. You’ll have brushes, palette knives, and everything you need to bring your ideas to life. This isn’t a step‑by‑step class, you’ll have full artistic freedom while our team offers light guidance, color‑mixing tips, and inspiration as you create.
Guests are welcome to bring inspiration photos or design ideas to turn into edible artwork. When you’re finished, you’ll take home your creation to enjoy later… if there’s anything left.
Hot or iced handcrafted lattes, brewed coffee, and a signature drink will be served by Wallaby Coffee, with light snacks available throughout the event.
This event is perfect for friends, coffee lovers, and anyone looking for a relaxed daytime experience centered around cake, coffee, and creativity. Spaces are limited.
What to Expect
Each guest gets a 4x4 white chiffon cake topped with vanilla buttercream, plus a delicious frosting paint palette, brushes, and palette knives to create your own edible masterpiece. Sip crafted coffees and lattes from Wallaby Café, nibble on light snacks, and enjoy a sweet, creative afternoon that’s all about fun.
Ages
Made for coffee‑sipping grownups, but little creatives are welcome to join in.

Meet Tara — Our Cake & Canvas Guide
Tara brings both artistry and expertise to Bord‑Aire’s Cake & Canvas experience. A Professional Baking and Patisserie Honours graduate from RRC Polytech, she pairs technical skill with a natural eye for colour and design. As Bord‑Aire’s board secretary, Tara joined the executive team in 2026, but she has been actively involved with the Centre and our events since early 2025, contributing her time, creativity, and steady support.
For this event, Tara created the beautiful buttercream colour palette that guests will be using, thoughtfully mixing each shade to make the decorating process fun and approachable. Throughout the session, she’ll be available to offer guidance, share practical decorating tips, and help guests experiment with texture, colour, and technique.
Her professional training and calm, encouraging style make her an invaluable part of the Cake & Canvas experience, helping every participant feel confident as they turn a simple cake into something uniquely their own
